I tend to use bulk setters on the helper classes to transfer everything
from the ActionForm at once, e.g.
public void setString(
String property0, String property1, String property2, String
property3
) throws SQLException {
values.updateString("property0",property0);
values.updateString("property1",property1);
values.updateString("property2",property2);
values.updateString("property3",property3);
}
The helper class can then expose the properties to the EJB, or other
data access object, in their native type.
